Abstract:
Abstract - This feature article is addressed to a broad community of polymer scientists, both theoreticians and experimentalists. We present several examples of our dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulations of self- and co-assembling polyelectrolyte systems to illustrate the power of DPD. In the first part, we briefly outline basic principles of DPD. Special emphasis is placed on the incorporation of explicit electrostatic forces into DPD, on their calibration with respect to the soft repulsion forces and on the use of DPD for studying the self-assembly of electrically charged polymer systems. At present, the method with explicit electrostatics is being used in a number of studies of the behavior of single polyelectrolyte chains, their interaction with other components of the system, etc. However, in DPD studies of self-assembly, which require high numbers of chains, only a few research groups use explicit electrostatics. Most studies of polyelectrolyte self-assembly are based on the “implicit solvent ionic strength” approach, which completely ignores the long-range character of electrostatic interactions, because their evaluation complicates and considerably slows down the DPD simulation runs. We aim at the analysis of the impact of explicit electrostatics on simulation results.

Abstract:
In the last three decades, many giant DNA viruses have been discovered. Giant viruses present a unique and essential research frontier for studies of self-assembly and regulation of supramolecular assemblies. The question on how these giant DNA viruses assemble thousands of proteins so accurately to form their protein shells, the capsids, remains largely unanswered. Revealing the mechanisms of giant virus assembly will help to discover the mysteries of many self-assembly biology problems. Paramecium bursaria Chlorella virus-1 (PBCV-1) is one of the most intensively studied giant viruses. Here, we implemented a multi-scale approach to investigate the interactions among PBCV-1 capsid building units called capsomers. Three binding modes with different strengths are found between capsomers around the relatively flat area of the virion surface at the icosahedral 2-fold axis. Furthermore, a capsomer structure manipulation package is developed to simulate the capsid assembly process. Using these tools, binding forces among capsomers were investigated and binding funnels were observed that were consistent with the final assembled capsid. In addition, total binding free energies of each binding mode were calculated. The results helped to explain previous experimental observations. Results and tools generated in this work established an initial computational approach to answer current unresolved questions regarding giant virus assembly mechanisms. Results will pave the way for studying more complicated process in other biomolecular structures.

Abstract:
A short self-assembly peptide A6K (H2N−AAAAAAK−OH) with unmodified N− and C−terminus was designed, and the charge distribution model of this short peptide at different pH was established by computer simulation. The pH of the solution was adjusted according to the model and the corresponding self-assembled structure was observed using a transmission electron microscope (TEM). As the pH changes, the peptide will assemble into blocks or nanoribbons, which indicates that the A6K peptide is a pH-responsive peptide. Circular dichroism (CD) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation showed that the block structure was formed by random coils, while the increase in β-turn content contributes to the formation of intact nanoribbons. A reasonable explanation of the self-assembling structure was made according to the electrostatic distribution model and the effect of electrostatic interaction on self-assembly was investigated. This study laid the foundation for further design of nanomaterials based on pH-responsive peptides.

Abstract:
Titania (anatase) nanoparticles were anisotropically functionalized in water-toluene Pickering emulsions to self-assemble into nanoshells with diameters from 500 nm to 3 μm as candidates for encapsulation of drugs and other compounds. The water-phase contained a hydrophilic ligand, glucose-6-phosphate, while the toluene-phase contained a hydrophobic ligand, n-dodecylphosphonic acid. The addition of a dilute sodium alginate suspension that provided electrostatic charge was essential for the self-limited assembly of the nanoshells. The self-assembled spheres were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, elemental mapping, and atomic force microscopy. Drug release studies using tetracycline suggest a rapid release dominated by surface desorption.

We study the protein viability on Au nanoparticles during an electrospray and electrostatic-force-directed assembly process, through which Au nanoparticle-antibody conjugates are assembled onto the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to fabricate carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (CNTFET) biosensors. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and field-effect transistor (FET) measurements have been used to investigate the antibody activity after the nanoparticle assembly. Upon the introduction of matching antigens, the colored reaction from the ELISA and the change in the electrical characteristic of the CNTFET device confirm that the antibody activity is preserved during the assembly process.

Abstract:
Electrospinning polymer fibers is a well-understood process primarily resulting in random mats or single strands. More recent systems and methods have produced nanofiber yarns (NFY) for ease of use in textiles. This paper presents a method of NFY manufacture using a simplified dry electrospinning system to produce self-assembling functional NFY capable of conducting electrical charge. The polymer is a mixture of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), polyvinyl acrylate (PVA) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS). When treated with ethylene glycol (EG) to enhance conductivity, fibers touching the collector plate align to the applied electrostatic field and grow by twisting additional nanofiber polymers injected by the jet into the NFY bundle. The longer the electrospinning continues, the longer and more uniformly twisted the NFY becomes. This process has the added benefit of reducing the electric field required for NFY production from >2.43 kV cm−1 to 1.875 kV cm−1.

Full text
Abstract:
The assembly of alphavirus nucleocapsid cores requires electrostatic interactions between the positively charged N-terminus of the capsid protein (CP) and the encapsidated polyanionic cargo. This system differs from many other viruses that can self-assemble particles in the absence of cargo, or form “empty” particles. We hypothesized that the introduction of a mutant, anionic CP could replace the need for charged cargo during assembly. In this work, we produced a CP mutant, Minus 38 (M38), where all N-terminal charged residues are negatively-charged. When wild-type (WT) and M38 CPs were mixed, they assembled into core-like particles (CLPs). These “empty” particles were of similar size and morphology to WT CLPs assembled with DNA cargo, but did not contain nucleic acid. When DNA cargo was added to the assembly mixture, the amount of M38 CP that was assembled into CLPs decreased, but was not fully excluded from the CLPs, suggesting that M38 competes with DNA to interact with WT CPs. The composition of CLPs can be tuned by altering the order of addition of M38 CP, WT CP, and DNA cargo. The ability to produce alphavirus CLPs that contain a range of amounts of encapsidated cargo, including none, introduces a new platform for packaging cargo for delivery or imaging purposes.

Abstract:
Self-assembled physisorbed monolayers consist of regular two-dimensional arrays of molecules. Two-dimensional self-assembly of organic and metal–organic building blocks is a widely used strategy for nanoscale functionalization of surfaces. These supramolecular nanostructures are typically sustained by weak non-covalent forces such as van der Waals, electrostatic, metal–ligand, dipole–dipole and hydrogen bonding interactions. A wide variety of structurally very diverse monolayers have been fabricated under ambient conditions at the liquid–solid and air–solid interface or under ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) conditions at the UHV–solid interface. The outcome of the molecular self-assembly process depends on a variety of factors such as the nature of functional groups present on assembling molecules, the type of solvent, the temperature at which the molecules assemble and the concentration of the building blocks. The objective of this review is to provide a brief account of the progress in understanding various parameters affecting two-dimensional molecular self-assembly through illustration of some key examples from contemporary literature.

Full text
Abstract:
Self-assembled multilayers were fabricated from lignosulfonate (LS) and poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDAC), and the adsorption and desorption behaviors of LS on the LS/PDAC multilayers under different pH conditions were intensively investigated. Results showed that the adsorption and desorption behaviors were controlled by electrostatic attraction, hydrophobic interaction, and changes in the microstructure, which depended on solution pH. Lignosulfonates exist as colloids in solutions at low pH because of a hydrophobic interactions, and the LS colloids adsorbed on the PDAC layer because of electrostatic attraction. LS colloids started to disassociate at pH 3.5, resulting in an abrupt rise of the adsorption rate, a sharp decrease of the adsorbed amount, and a steep reduction in the surface roughness. Desorption behaviors of LS multilayers were related to the pH values of both LS dipping solution for self-assembly and the immersing solution for post-preparation treatment. Desorption of LS could be induced by a weakening of electrostatic attraction or hydrophobic interaction. A significant desorption occurred only when LS colloids dissociated in the multilayers. LS colloids were harder to dissociate in the multilayers than in the solutions because of electrostatic attraction between LS and PDAC.

Full text
Abstract:
Self-assembled nanoparticle (NP) arrays at liquid interfaces provide a unique optical response which has opened the door to new tuneable metamaterials for sensing and optical applications. NPs can spontaneously assemble at a liquid–liquid interface, forming an ordered, self-healing, low-defect 2D film. The close proximity of the NPs at the interface results in collective plasmonic modes with a spectral response dependent on the distance between the NPs and induces large field enhancements within the gaps. In this study, we assembled spherical and rod-shaped gold NPs with the aim of improving our understanding of NP assembly processes at liquid interfaces, working towards finely controlling their structure and producing tailored optical and enhanced Raman signals. We systematically tuned the assembly and spacing between NPs through increasing or decreasing the degree of electrostatic screening with the addition of electrolyte or pH adjustment. The in situ modulation of the nanoparticle position on the same sample allowed us to monitor plasmon coupling and the resulting SERS enhancement processes in real time, with sub-nm precision.

Abstract:
Two experimental studies relating to electrostatic self-assembly have been the subject of dynamic computer simulations, where the consequences of changing the charge and the dielectric constant of the materials concerned have been explored. One series of calculations relates to experiments on the assembly of polymer particles that have been subjected to tribocharging and the simulations successfully reproduce many of the observed patterns of behaviour. A second study explores events observed following collisions between single particles and small clusters composed of charged particles derived from a metal oxide composite. As before, observations recorded during the course of the experiments are reproduced by the calculations. One study in particular reveals how particle polarizability can influence the assembly process. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Modern theoretical chemistry’.

Full text
Abstract:
A new technique based on an electrostatic-force-directed-self-assembly was developed to fabricate thin films of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on thin dielectric wires. This technique was further developed to achieve functionalization of the nanotubes via acid-free dry route in a few seconds. The functionalization was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectroscopic measurements. The electrostatically self-assembled films provided significantly enhanced sensitivity for detection of alcohol vapors. Sensors were tested for response of alcohol concentrations as low as 200 ppm (parts per million) with a sensitivity of 4% and high repeatability. Recovery of sensors was observed to be within 200 s. Selectivity of the sensors for different organic vapors was defined based on the recovery time. Operation of sensors did not require high temperatures. It was realized that corona-based electrostatic self-assembly (CESA) pattering technique for batch fabrication of the sensors was fast, simple, low-cost, and required no specialized equipment.

Abstract:
Dengue virus causes serious diseases and deaths in the world. Understanding the fundamental mechanisms of dengue virus is highly demanded to develop treatments for dengue virus caused diseases. Here, we present a computational work which focused on the stability of dengue viral capsid. The interactions among E proteins on the dengue viral capsid were studied using several computational approaches. It was found that the electrostatic distribution on a single E protein monomer is highly inhomogeneous, which makes an E protein strongly binding with another E protein. This is the reason why all the E proteins form homodimers as the basic units on the whole dengue viral capsids. The pKa calculations of E proteins demonstrated that the folding energy of an E protein is low and stable in the range of pH 6–10, which is different from many other proteins that are stable at certain pH. The pH dependence of binding energy of E protein homodimer shows that the binding energy is low and independent from pH when the pH is also in the range of 6–10. This finding implies that the dengue virus can survive in a wide range of pH, which can explain why the dengue virus is so widely distributed in the world and spreads fast.
